Anthropic Seeks $30 Billion at More Than $900 Billion Valuation

Bloomberg’s technology program framed the day’s AI trade around access to scarce capacity: Nvidia chips for China, private capital for Anthropic, and manufacturing scale for Anduril. Its central report was that Anthropic is in early talks to raise at least $30 billion at a valuation above $900 billion, a deal Bloomberg’s Natasha Mascarenhas said would mark a major shift in the private AI hierarchy if completed. The program also treated Jensen Huang’s last-minute role in Trump’s China trip as a test of whether chip access can become a diplomatic deliverable without undermining Beijing’s domestic semiconductor strategy.
